Last month we met a sweet couple from the Netherla

Last month we met a sweet couple from the Netherlands, 'Papa' Paul and 'Momma' Nellie, who have been visiting Guatemala for the past few years. After a few visits, they became good friends with the people of Panajachel and were given their endearing nicknames. This year, they brought family and friends to visit Guatemala as well. Here, they gathered by the beautiful Lake Atitlán for a group Maya ceremony to conclude their visit together ✨ #storyoftheday

Times are odd all across the world. It's challengi

Times are odd all across the world. It's challenging to be in the uncertain, in unchartered territory with the team and the artisans we partner with. We have high hopes we will all recover soon.

Above is a lovely photo that makes us smile, taken just last week. We loved pairing extraordinary women weavers from Maya Traditions and from Loom Dancer Weaving Odysseys. The ladies who visited us had the opportunity to work one-on-one with artisans from San Juan La Laguna. This is what we look forward to, more moments like these. 💫

(Para español, por favor visítanos en Facebook) A few days ago, in response to COVID-19, we made the decision to cancel all activities for the safety of our artisan partners, the students, and the communities we support. Because of the workshops, tours, and production work we lead, the travel or gathering of artisans, students, and tourists are frequently included. Therefore, we knew we could not continue operations as normal, for the safety of everyone involved. We will be evaluating the pandemic day-by-day and are in accordance with the regulations set in place by the government of Guatemala determined last night.
.
We are truly thankful for the help we have received around the Lake as well. The advice and support shared has been an immense help and solace through this unchartered territory for us. We couldn't be more grateful for the strong community we are a part of.
.
To those who would like to visit our store, volunteer, or take a tour with us, please be patient with us for the next few weeks as we wait to determine when this will be safe and possible again.
.
Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to a fresh, healthy environment for everyone across the world.
